The Viscous Circle

The Viscous Circle

This film shows a different picture of Afghanistan, and focuses especially on the situation of women and children. Aysha, that works as a teacher tells openly about the lack of respect for women in the country. Foreign powers send lifethreatening plastic mines at the same time as they deal out prostheses. The country is being transformed to a prison and the afghans are forced into a viscious circle.
